Hansshow installers recommendation

[prasadtakkar]

Hi All,
I am looking at purchasing the auto retractable running boards for my Gen 1 R1S from Hansshow, product description below:
https://www.hansshow.com/products/rivian-r1t-electric-running-board-lhd-22

I am looking for any recommended installers in CA Bay Area. Hansshow store is in SoCal so driving there to install these is not practical.

Any suggestions welcome!

I am attempting to self-install these myself. It is not difficult. It requires tapping into two wires behind the footwell panel. Problem is it doesn’t retract when the door closes. Their customer support is non-existent and is based in China…. which means they are available when you are sleeping and their English is very poor. The chap I spoke with had zero technical knowledge about the installation.

I was actually referred to a couple of vendors by them

Their system does not work on 2025 Rivian R1S. It is not difficult to install. If you own a 2025+ Rivian R1S do not buy the Hansshow system. There is a version on eBay that utilizes magnets applied to the doors.
